67L78 thanks for the reply.

I want to make sure I get my info correct so bare with me.

Bat car and your car was essentially the same except for the fact the frame mount bolts were positioned to where your car was going from the ground side towards the engine but the bat car was going from the engine side towards the ground?

Thanks, Darrell

Wanting to get more information on the 69 year to help when I am looking for parts. I always understood that ALL 69 V8's had 3/8 line from the tank to pump. I am wanting to clarify this. Would this have been the same part # regardless of engine? I ask as I have seen some fuel lines advertised (OEM used) as coming off a COPO. If this is the same line as , say, a 307, as I believe, I am not going to payi for the COPO lineage ;) makes sense? I mean, you say COPO and the price goes up 100X's, absurd. I also am curious if the Q-jet main line, too, is the same as the single line (as far as bends & overall shape) seems as it would be. As a side, the repros all show the same part # for all the V8 different applications, but who can believe what is printed in those catalogs? Thanks, CRG. Does not make sense that a different part number would be used for a 307,302,396..., but engine mounts are different, so who knows?

GM was 'practicing' ..  to make sure they got it right by 1969....  :)

That's why there so many '69's - it took them that much longer to get it somewhat right..

Did you look in the parts catalogs?

Interesting to see DS1 (replies # 23 & #32) picture of a 67 11D NOR that shows the square upper control arm shim bar that doesn't look like the traditional dog bone.
My 05B has that same shape bar too though the 04B LOS has the dog bone shape. I know there was some speculation as to if that was a replacement but it's looking more like two shape bars were used.

There has been discussion here of many 67 Camaros having mis-matched (1 0f each) Control Arm shafts.

Just a little off topic, that car had the early design trunk, and the PBT stamps put on the firewall were under the heater cover on the firewall.   Not up high on the firewall where they could be seen

Kurt - 69 L78 fuel line routing / engine compartment pitcure.  Do you know of varying styles of fuel line clips between different 69 L78's from Los Angeles?  I've seen clips with two fingers that wrap around the fuel line that are different from those found on my car.  Mine is not a validated L78 and the clips are solid around the line with a 'V' toward the bottom of the clip where it curves back toward the sub frame.  Attached is a picture of a clip that looks like the ones connecting my fuel line to the sub frame.

Great angle that clearly shows the routing.
Those are the clips that I'm familiar with for 69 and but look different than Vince's.

On my car there are four clips that fasten the fuel line to the front sub frame, all are the same style clips.  There are two that fasten the fuel line to the under body about 2/3rds of the way back, one right behind the spiral wire covered 'S' curve is the two finger design clip like the ones you see on Vince's car on his front sub frame.  The second under body clip / fastener is the dual hump line retainer and the last two clips on the unibody sub frame rail are the same as the four on the front.  Interesting note, the diagrams in the AIM UPC 8 pages B2 & B3 show the front and rear subframe clips as being the two finger design and the one described above as the two finger clip is shown as solid.  Any input on differing style clips found on Los Angeles cars?
